I’m a final year PhD student (about to submit!) at the UKRI Centre for Doctoral Training in Natural Language Processing at the University of Edinburgh working under the supervision of Björn Ross and Nadin Kokciyan. My research focuses on developing inductive research methods for the analysis of large social media corpora using NLP and applying them to study political discourse online.
